A spectacular evening awaits you...
“As you mingle at the entrance to Christmas Party World 2024, a warm inviting glow seeps out of the party venue… offering a teasing glimpse as to what lies within! Once inside, the vista is mind-blowing. Sparkling golds and dancing beams of light whirl overhead, highlighting the party scene in full flow. The venue exudes class and elegance together with a high-spirited, vivacious atmosphere. As you begin to make your way through to the main bar area where friends and family wait, the tempo of the evening begins to change pace as the night starts to show its real character. The bars exude endless, fast-moving energy which adds to the electric atmosphere. You recognise upbeat tunes of well-known classics and funky beats of modern party tunes as carefree conversation buzzes around. Read More The cocktail bar is as busy as ever as professional mixologists mix and mingle iconic drinks, while the main bars offer traditional beers, spirits, crisp wines and delicious canapés are offered around the room for you to sample. As you take your seats for dinner, the focus moves to the main stage as the evening’s entertainment gathers pace again. Hand-picked world-class circus entertainers perform the impossible with daring poise and grace to a backdrop of fire flames and mesmerising lighting. As you enjoy a tasty festive dinner and relax amongst friends and colleagues, conversation is plentiful and fine wines flow. As the last spoonful of dessert is devoured, the lights cut to an explosion of light and sound on the main stage that marks the beginning of a dazzling finale. Fresh coffee and chocolates are served, roulette and blackjack tables come to life and the fairground rides (including dodgems, waltzer, twist & miami) whir into action! The dance floor beckons for those disco bunnies with boundless energy and whose night is still young! As midnight approaches breakfast rolls are served against the vista of twinkling lights and inspiring scenery. As the evening draws to an unwelcome end, memories of a fun filled night are etched, as you reflect on a truly spectacular party!”

“This was the most we have ever spent on a Christmas party and was by a long way the best money we have ever spent. It was worth every penny and the feedback without exception was fantastic - from the youngsters to the more mature, our team had an absolute ball! Thank you to all!”
“Loved the whole experience. What sets it apart is the pre-dinner treats - entertainment, varied choice of bars in a small locality, good quality canapés. Also the midnight buffet- more indulgence! Love the themes- creates the excitement and ambience.”
